Hardcover of Koontz's Darkfall for $1.50. Not sure if I've read this one.



Fun read! The cop interplay is hilariously cliched, but the critters are cool.

I love Reese's Peanut Butter Cups but they are available in Finland only in special import shops with insane prices.
Spatial distortion is a serious problem deteriorating headphone listening.
Crossfeeders reduce spatial distortion and make the sound more natural
and less tiresome in headphone listening.

Man 71 dB, the Five Doctors is pretty neat. :)

(for the essays, not the play)

Also, WTF at the people reviewing the play itself in the Amazon reviews. But whatever, they make some amusing reading.
Peanut butter, flour and sugar do not make cookies. They make FIRE.

The Merchant of Venice is 2 star material, apparently. Like Spiderman 2...

I would not give The Merchant for a wilderness of Spidermen.

OK then, so no Spidermen. How about ... 3000 ducats?

Both are great, in different ways. Spiderman 2 in that often useful, "try not to think too much/just have fun" way; Merchant of Venice in the "if I pay close enough attention, my perspective of myself and others will be enriched" type 'o way.

Oh! I'm to go to the closet to check to see if my shoe is untied?

All my shoes in the closet are untied, Dave.
